I also used a hole saw to make the two holes for the exhaust in the cross-member. It was a real PITA. I had to weld in a small extension for the hole saw center as it was in an area with no steel. If I had to do it again I would use a torch. Getting a drill that goes slow enough for such a large hole-saw is almost impossible.

I used a torch. I used the ID of the 4" pipe and tack welded it in place, then used the ID as a template. It took a few minutes with a die grinder to open them up the rest of the way, but it came out nice.
